It won’t happen because there is no discipline in the mechanical side of the sport, the riders rule the sport, until that changes nothing changes -

THE DEAN MACHINE replied to scoobydoo's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
And nobody is talking about the elephant in the room and it’s been in the room for years ,in the last 15-20 years the revs on a speedway bike have increased dramatically, tyres can’t cope, valves springs can’t cope, tracks can’t cope, nothing has been achieved racing wise or cost wise and safety wise has gone backwards, the only ones to benefit are the tuners and even they will tell you they don’t make enough, it is a misconception that speedway is faster now, it isn’t, the bikes are traveling at roughly the same speed as the upright days, the difference is the speed of the spinning wheel has increased hugely and you run a tyre spinning at that speed with around 6psi what the hell do you expect, yes mitas were a better tyre than anlas but there isn’t a tyre manufacturer in the world that could produce a tyre that wouldn’t get ripped to shreds on a current speedway bike, will speedway learn from its mistakes ?

2 valve jawa oil pump
THE DEAN MACHINE replied to jsteve1999's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
You will see it pumping the oil through the glass when bike is running, if you are still unsure unscrew the banjo that is top of oil pipe to head, oil should come out, don’t do it for long though, do you have reason to think it’s not working ? -
Sadly this is much much worse than speedway, it could be as bad as starving or freezing to death

There is certainly a few big girls who come out when the track is less than perfect
